The new “Green Event Ideas” brochure offers a collection of practical strategies across a range of areas from waste management to registration and catering. Made available in electronic format to event planners who book with the Centre, the seven-page booklet contains a series of checklists of environmentally-friendly strategies that can be easily implemented from the initial planning stages of an event right through to completion. Tips include encouraging the use of public transport by delegates, limiting handouts and providing information electronically to reduce paper usage, ensuring natural light and energy efficiency lighting is used wherever possible, and promoting the use of custom stands that can be reused at other events. Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre Chief Executive Ton van Amerongen said the creation of the brochure reflected the Centre’s drive to encourage environmentally-friendly practices across the industry. “We take our environmental responsibilities very seriously and encourage event planners involved with the Centre to do the same. The new Green Event Ideas brochure is the perfect planning tool for those event planners striving to be more environmentally conscious,” Mr van Amerongen said. The brochure is the latest initiative from the Centre’s innovative environmental program, Ecowise, introduced in 2004 to minimise waste from conventions and exhibitions and cut the venue’s energy usage. It follows the Centre’s success earlier this year in becoming one of the first convention centres in the world – and the only convention centre in Australia – to be awarded the Green Globe benchmark accreditation, an accolade which recognises the venue’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact through a variety of initiatives.
